NOTE: For the record, there should be no inferred or implied interpretation of the selection of the source tune used for this parody. Simply, I was out walking my dogs this afternoon through Curran Hall Ravine, listening to that album, and it struck me as a perfect rhythm to talk about the benefits of structure and rules in terms of clarity, consistency, and ease of use. Ed uses photos & analogies, I use punk songs & parodies.

I don't want anyone to think that I'm trying to imply that the EMO's rules are somehow bad, malicious, or simply just lies. ;-) Au contraire, Bjorn's readiness to improve processes and simplify overhead proves the opposite. I'm well aware that we're all in this together and the point of setting rules and standards is to ensure things are done legally, consistently, and without perceived bias toward any given member company or other.

Rules... make it better
Rules... aren't forever
Rules... to be consistent
Rules... for the betterment
Rules... from the EMO
Rules... from the Councils
Rules... keep IP clean
Rules... 'till review's done...
